Ever Strange

By: Alisa Woods

Narrated by: Lance Greenfield, Brooke Hayden

It takes a monster to catch one.

Zane Walker - FBI, Magickal Crimes Division

There's a reason the bureau sends me undercover with the worst drug cartels in the world - my magick is as illegal and dirty as the enhancers they peddle. Just the kind that "Pennies" Machnik - Dziki crime lord - likes to use on his enemies. Being his enforcer lets me keep my own monster locked up while I build a case against him. If I can bring Pennies in, maybe I can finally put the stigma of what I am behind me. But when people start overdosing on his street drugs, a beautiful witch storms in, making demands she thinks she can back up with magick. I have to make a split second choice...and the monster comes raging out.

Ever Strange - CEO, Strange Medical Technologies

Someone has killed my father. They made it look like an overdose, but Asher Strange, the world-renown researcher of medical magick, never took an illegal drug in his life...much less tawdry magick enhancers. I run the family empire, but no one was more proud of the Strange family name than my father. A long line of us stretches back to the first days of High Magick - no way he would throw that away chasing a quick high. But before I can get an autopsy, my father's body disappears...and being a Level One mage and one of the richest women in the city means I will get answers.

Someone's putting deadly magick into street drugs...and it's killing people all over Chicago.

Zane's magick is monstrous, and Ever's power brings out his beast. But she insists on finding her father; keeping her safe has suddenly become his job - on top of stopping an epidemic of overdoses that just might be cover for a serial killer. Together, they work to stop the dark magick that's stalking the streets of Chicago..and try to keep their own secrets from consuming them both.

Ever Strange is the first book in a new paranormal romantic suspense series from best-selling romance author Alisa Woods.

The first three books in the series (Ever Strange, Mercy Strange, Verity Strange) follow the three Strange sisters, each powerful witches in an influential magickal family embroiled in a mysterious plot to change everything about the magickal world. Part urban fantasy, Legal Magick takes place in an alternate Chicago where High Magick returned in 1859 and is now integral in every aspect of the legal - and illegal - world. Each book is a stand-alone romance.

Magical Freedom

Awesome book loved the interaction between the characters. I loved the way it was told and am looking forward to the next

good story

the story overall was good. i didnt feel like the plot is totally overdone. worth the read

Ever Strange

If you like Succubus, Mages, Magic, Drug Kingpins, Mobs, and FBI agents then this is the story for you. I listen to 5 chapters trying to get into it. But I just am not into it. I was really lost from the beginning and stayed lost. I will just stick to my Vampires, Werewolves, Mummies, Frankenstiens and the like. And I will stay in past where a Witch was a healer.

Great Paranormal Romantic Suspense!

This was my first Alisa Woods's book, and won't be my last. This is the first book in the Legal Magick Series, a great paranormal romantic suspense. Zane and Ever are great character, strong and powerful! Ever is CEO at Strange Medical Technologies, her family empire, and she is a powerful Witch. Zane is an undercover FBI agent at Magickal Crimes Division, and he is an incubus. They share an instant attraction, and a sizzling chemistry. The story has both POV, which is great. I love the sisterhood/family spirit in this story. The storyline is action packed and filled with adventures, and twists and turns. The world building is well done, and complex. The story has a HEA for now for Ever and Zane, but ends with a cliffhanger/introduction to Mercy's story. Lance Greenfield and Brooke Hayden did a great job with the narration. I love their voices together. I enjoyed listening this story.

Starts slow but does get better

Zane is an undercover FBI agent & an incubus. Ever is a witch. She gets caught in a situation that could get her killed, but Zane saves her. They end up teaming up together for an undercover sting on a drug boss that Zane has been trying to take down. I won't give any spoilers tho.

This is not one of my faves from Alisa. It has a really interesting plot with well-developed characters. I found the first few chapters slow & hard for me to get into, but I ended up enjoying the storyline. It has plot twists & surprises along the way. It has a HEA but it ends on a big cliffhanger with more unanswered questions. I rated this down since it started out slow & I wasn't sure if I'd be able to get into the storyline. It deserves more than 3 stars but not a full 4, but that's just my opinion. Pick this one up & try it for yourself.

I was not a fan of the narrators.
